The Kaypro 2/83 computer - the very first Kaypro II - 2 full height floppy drives.
Each disk was single sided, and could hold 191k. The computer had 2x pio
and 1x sio. One of the sio ports communicated with the keyboard with a coiled
telephone cord, complete with modular plug on each end. The keyboard carries
its own Intel 87C51 processor and is an intelligent device.
